Stand or fall?

History drew Jess and Thad Kittrell to a farmhouse on Brand Road in Dublin. History may push them away. The couple fell in love with the 1880 farmhouse and placed an offer on the home, hoping to restore it for their family of six. But after a tour of the home and an engineering inspection convinced them the structure was beyond saving, the couple applied for a permit to raze the house so they could build a new home on the 5-acre site.
